Well I have it working enough to drive around town but still needs some tuning but yesterday was its maiden voyage and it didn’t blow up and it got me home so I am happy. Now comes the fine tuning even though it took me a week to get the carb tuned so the truck would move under its own power, but it sure sounds good. I still have a valve rattle I guess not to bad for my first rebuild
